Libraries
The Geological Sciences Library was housed in Mitchell Hall from when the building opened in 1964 until 2011, when its collections were moved into the Kenan Science Library Annex of Wilson Library, just a short walk from Mitchell Hall. The Department has a premier geoscience collection focused in geochemistry, paleobiology, paleoclimate, seismology, surface processes, and tectonics. While the library primarily serves the learning and research needs of the students and faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, it also draws researchers from the Triangle region and the southeastern United States. The library is open to the public.
